Change values of one row into separate rows

[Anonymous]

I have the following formula and result of the formula (Please ignore the red lines, as I've changed the names of tables and columns since I'm posting on a public forum): 

Missing Costs Test =
(if((RELATED(RefTable[Product categories])<>"Cylinder")&&(Output[Total Cost]=0),"Missing Costs Outside, ", "") &

if((RELATED(OutputMaster[Step 1+2])="")&&(OutputEuro[Step 1 per unit]=0)&&(RELATED(OutputMaster[Step 1])<> ""),"Missing Costs on Step 1, ",""))

The result of the formula I have combines the values from my if statements into one row since I'm using an "&" between the two If statements.  What I really want is a result that looks like the following:

Does anyone know how I can accomplish this?  Currently, I'm using the above formula as a new column in my "Output" table but I don't mind creating a new table to have the "Index" and "Missing Costs Test" values and joining back to the "Output" table if necessary.

Hi @Anonymous,

You can modify above formula:

Missing Costs Test =
 (
    IF (
        ( RELATED ( RefTable[Product categories] ) <> "Cylinder" )
            && ( Output[Total Cost] = 0 ),
        "Missing Costs Outside",
        ""
    )
        & UNICHAR ( 10 )
        & IF (
            ( RELATED ( OutputMaster[Step 1+2] ) = "" )
                && ( OutputEuro[Step 1 per unit] = 0 )
                && ( RELATED ( OutputMaster[Step 1] ) <> "" ),
            "Missing Costs on Step 1",
            ""
        )
)

Add it to table visual, remember to turn on "Word Wrap".

Thanks for the suggestion Yuliana.  However, the result I was looking for was actually seperating the two values into two seperate cells.  The result here gives the perception of two rows, but it is still one value.

I was looking for a method where I can filter on a "Missing Costs Test" value and have each unique "Index" for it to show up in a table.  I wouldn't be able to filter for this in the example you have suggested.  The end result I'm looking for is the following if possible:

The "Missing Costs Outside" and "Missing Costs on Step 1" are two unique values in this format, and I can filter for either one and find all the Index values for either if aligned this way.

Thank you,

Hi @Anonymous,

No. It is not possible to achieve such a output.

If you are familiar with Power Query, you could create a custom column "Missing Costs Test" with Power Query. Then, split this column with delimiter, then, unpivot table. Split comma delimited cell into multiple rows, keeping row details
